Answer:

The given statement is false.

Step-by-step explanation:

The paramesonephric ducts or the Mullerian ducts refers to a paired ducts of mesodermal in origin found in the embryo. They run sideways down the urogenital ridge and culminates at the Mullerian eminence in the embryonic urogenital sinus.

The Mullerian ducts are the elemental organ of the female reproductive tract. They further divide to produce the uterus, the fallopian tubes, the superior part of the vagina, and the uterine cervix. A wide array of abnormalities can take place when this system gets hampered.
